Q & A: Tail Swing When Towing
Q: I have a 2003 Four Winds Chateau Sport 28-foot Class C motorhome. Because of the coach's long rear overhang behind the rear wheels, am I going to have a problem towing a dinghy? I'd like to tow a 2005 Honda Element with five-speed manual that weighs about 4,000 pounds. My mechanic said that there might be a problem with breaking the tire beads on the front tires on the towed vehicle.

To calculate your motorhome's available capacity for towing, subtract the fully loaded weight (passengers and cargo) of the coach from its rated GCWR (gross combined weight rating). Read more.
